building question

[blue_wolfy]

I wanted to try my hand at building a house suitable for Arkaz, Though as a first time building I am not sure what haks to add to the toolset. Is there any specific Haks i need to have the modual use? and do they have to be in a certain order?

I remember once I asked someone to PM me the list but with my internet down for the time there, I forget who said they would send it.

I found the correct hak list, thanks everyone.

Ok this might sound weird but in the toolset are the items and such suppose to be named in jibberish?

a hut named "I don't know. I can't think. The Spirit hasn't been here in a while. It doesn't travel by here now. I don't know why. Maybe if you could find someone whose mind isn't affected by the Spirit's power."

yes that entire sentance.
other examples....
a japanese style archway named "I'm looking for work, if you know of any." it is in a section called "do me look like a troll"

there are litteraly thousands of items and sections all named in such jibberish, I just wanted to know if this is normal or no.

You send a dm the request for a home plot. The dm then does a plot quest for the players to earn there plot of land. Once the player has earned the land the dm uses the dm housing wand on you and it gives you the house flag. Once they've been marked the npc in the housing office will tell you how much they need to collect. There is a box in there that you dump the collected stuff in to be counted. Once you have completed everything let the dm know. Also let the DM know which house model you want. The models can be viewed in the housing office.

Email all housing requests (includes upgrades and additional p-chests) to housing@arkaz.com.

I played in toolset and created Asil a 'house' and the start of a 'school'. I understand Ive not been approved for a house yet, I am not counting chickens before they're hatched, the playing in toolset was just something I wanted to do since I never have before. However, When I send the house request in should I also include this floorplan I made or does that step come later?

I assume it is part of step 2

2) At some point, you provide the team with a rough estimate of how many of each of the things listed below you will have in your house. If you are unsure of what something can be classified as, describe it and we'll let you know. Special objects that do not fit any of these classifications should also be listed with a suitable description of their purpose (e.g. "I'm going to want some butterflies that do something weird when someone clicks on it.") The requirements will be updated in the database to reflect the requirements for these estimates. If you do not want to build a custom house on your own, and instead, select from the 7 prebuilt house models, then just tell us that at this stage.

But if i have it ready do I include it in with the house request?

I am not team however,

Speaking from experience, it is better to not send the file until it is done and ready. This will prevent an outdated house you made from accidentally being the one uploaded other then your current version. (I had this issue! Thankfully nice builder fixed it.)

There is a code you will have to turn in that details what is on each floor, for the builder's understanding of what you need to pay for.

thanks Ronan

yeah i saw that in step 3,I've already started to compile the list of floor space/materials/ect that i'ld have to pay extra for. Im pretty happy with the base building i made, It is the later upgrade to turn it into a 'school' that is gunna be murder (possibly literally to get a corpse for the psycometabolisum studies )

edit:

it is time to submit an erf of your house

is an 'erf' the modual file?
